Nearly 65 million people currently don't use pest control products, leaving many families unprotected as they begin opening windows in the warmer weather and spending more time outdoors. But according to a 2021 Harris Poll conducted on behalf of the National Pest Management Association, 85 percent of homeowners reported seeing or having trouble with pests in the past year. STEM offers a full line of seven insecticides and repellents, giving homeowners around the country a variety of solutions tailored to their preferences and pest control needs.
An Entomologist at the SC Johnson Centre for Insect Science and Family Health, said: "We have been hard at work developing STEM for the last few years with the knowledge that certain botanical extracts contain chemicals that naturally immobilise bugs. So, we used these extracts in scientifically precise combinations to optimise effectiveness on bugs, while ensuring they are safe to use around humans and pets, when used as directed. We then conducted rigorous testing to ensure the plant-powered products deliver the efficacy we know our customers expect."
STEM insecticides and repellents have no added dye, fragrance or harsh chemical odour. The plant-derived active ingredients, like lemongrass, mint and rosemary oils, provide an effective solution, whilst the nozzles are specifically designed to target insects directly.
